Explanation

An Interconnection Security Agreement (ISA) is a formal agreement between two organizations that documents the technical and security requirements governing the connection of their IT systems. It covers items such as technical specifications, data flows, security controls, configuration responsibilities, and rules of behavior for the interconnection. The other options serve different purposes: an SLA (Service Level Agreement) defines performance metrics and uptime commitments; an MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) expresses general intent or cooperation without binding technical detail; and a BAA (Business Associate Agreement) is a HIPAA-specific contract governing the handling of Protected Health Information.
